Pioneer Bowl, est 1946. A vintage, "tangerine dream", 6 lane wooden alley in Pioneertown. We are the fun center of the high desert at 4200 ft elevation. So "bring yer ma bowlin'", cuz we are easy to find & "smack dab in the middle uv town".
The Wild West still exists in Pioneertown. More people are starting to discover this small community, close Joshua Tree National Park, in the California High Desert.
